Mrs, Quack felt as if she needed eyes all over her body to keep track of them. The very first thing she taught them was to mind instantly, She knew that their safety depended on this and she took great pains to make them understand that something dreadrul would happen to them if they didn't mind, Down to the Laughing Brook Mrs, Quack led them first, - You would have laughed to see them paddling about for the first time. They had ne more fear of the water than thw had of the ground when they had Mrs. Quack came over at once to get the corn that Farmer Brown's Boy threw in the water, fow water and searching in the mud below for things to cat, Curiously enough, that every night Une' Billy Possum found the deserted nest, He never had given up looking for it, Every once in a while when he had nothing else to do he would go looking for Mrs, Quack and her nest, and it just happened that the night arter that nest was deserted Une' Billy poking around, happened to push his head under some big skunk cabbage leaves and right into a mass of feathers. They were the feathers with which Mrs, Quack had lined her nest. But the nest was empty save for some broken egg- shells, Ung Billy didn't waste any Almonds, 'April * 24, ~~ Miss Helethia Vanstone, of Whithy, spent the week-end with Mrs, Milda Lee, Master 'Donald Kemp is spending Easter holidays with his grandpar. ents, Mr. and Mrs, Arthur Boyce, of Plekering, Mrs, W, Hall and daughters Violet and Evelyn, visited on Wednesday with relatives in Oshawa, Mr, and Mry, Gordon Slade and family, of Toronto, were Good Frie day visitors with Mr, and Mrs, Nor: man Wood, Mrs, Jefferies, of Ridgelown, visits ed at the home of her sister, My, and Mrs, T.

Then Mrs. Quack swam down the Laughing Brook, going slowly, so that the babies could keep up with her. And in this way they reached the Smiling: Pool, A proud mother, indeed, was Mrs, Quack, as she sailed out into the Smiling Pool with her ten babies just back of her, Farmer Brown's Boy happened to come down to the Smiling Pool with some corn, just as Mrs, Quack and her babies appeared, and perhaps you can guess how delighted he was. Mrs, Quack came over at once to get the corn that Farmer Brown's Boy threw in the water. The babies didn't know what to make of it when they first saw their mother seeming to stand on her head in the water, They gathered around and just stared at her in round-eyed surprise, Of course they couldn't eat yellow corn, as they were so little that they had to have setter food, So presently tneir moth er led them over along the swanipy edge of the Smiling Pool, where among the tussocks of grass and bul. rushes they could quickly hide in time of danger.
